Hi, I'm running Epiphany browser that works very great in most sites but it will become unusable with youtube, that have working audio but doesn't reproduce video, it instead shows only a white window and when in fullscreen a black one. I have a laptop with i5-11400H and RTX 3060 The system is Artix, linux kernel 6.3.2, with gnome-shell and gnome relative packages, and by following the Arch wiki I've installed all the Gstreamer plugins. Whit a video it uses 300 MB and webkitwebprocess uses 750 MB, measured with bpytop. App version: epiphany 44.2 - webkitgtk-6.0 2.40.1 - webkit2gtk-4.1 2.40.1 - mutter 44.1 - gnome-shell 44.1
